“What are you doing?”
“Lying on the floor,” you say.
She laughs. “Ok, but like. Why?”
“Because that’s where I am.”

A Letter from “Crawly” to Azirapil by mostlydeadlanguages
Fandoms: Good Omens - Neil Gaiman & Terry Pratchett, Good Omens (TV), Mesopotamian RPF

Summary
This remarkable letter of unknown provenance surfaced recently in the cuneiform collection of the University of West Wessex. Addressed to Azirapil from a Mr. “Crawly,” it appears to be begging for the other’s return to Ur from a western journey with another individual, Abiraham. The relationship between the two (brothers? business partners? friends?) is unknown.
